Interrupted Poems - Poems about Interrupted

Needles on the dresser, pipes in your hands, Chaos as the soundtrack to a childhood undone. Screams that hurt my ears, objects thrown and broken, tears on faces. When I think of my childhood, instead of being greeted by the warm and the good, though there was plenty. These are the memories that my brain...

Our picnic food draws pesky flies. We each grab a swatter and rise to wipe out those devils, but those crafty rebels escape. Then we don’t feel so wise. ...

An interrupted dream This morning, I'm happy  with a hint of nostalgia over love won and lost I'm drunk  too It takes days to get sober Today, I shall not walk  on the side of the righteous  Wind in my sail  a clipper crossing the pacific  buying tea for the woman I loved in Liverpool Sorry I left you, have unfinished business  In Brazil big eyes and rosa lips In Guatemala,...

Lately I’ve kept thinking How you’re only late if you show up I don’t wanna be in someone else’s web of memories I don’t wanna be the guardian angel who returns from the heavenly gates And saves the lives of who he once befriended Cause why do I have to leave at all? Even though...

When the flood came they were at ease feasting on stringy meat and bones in the makeshift camps of their tribes. The locust eating priests declared it was everyone's fault but theirs. Contrite, and greatly diminished in...

Purple hellion heard them coming, so he was quiet as he ate. He could tell by their chatter, they were outside his caveman gate. He stopped slurping his Thanksgiving feast, listening for their feet.

Interrupting a person in a rude way Makes me irritable much of the day. I do not yell and scream or even say. But it makes my heart unhappy and gray. I would rather be alone, sitting without a word Than to be interrupted, which is totally absurd. It shows a lack of manners, empathy or technique. It’s something that only a...

While I tried having a begging nap, On my door heard a begging rap… A female caller tilting her velvety cap, An errand running for my indulgent pap, On her bluish blouse, a heat-transferred world map, While her spread right fingers she played on her lap. From me, got and drank a glassful wine, Which first dulled her eyes before they did...

I walk the same path every morning…bright and early…every day…where I’m greeted by the same sounds…the same trees…the same animals along the way. I never find it boring..and no….I’m not a nut…it’s just I find my solace and my comfort in what some would call…my rut. Today I was a little shocked when my routine became disrupted…when...

Do not take a laxative and sleeping pill on the same night Do not bend over in skinny jeans that are way too tight Do not kick the can towards your best pal's girl for a fight Do not keep eating cause your taste buds are in delight Do not use your bicycle handbrake speeding downhill Do not use an...
